I have always had spouts of ideas/revelations/epiphanies since i can remember, and they always were gone once i had them. Only recently have i decided to start recording said ideas. Its simple, I downloaded a voice recorder app on my phone, and when I get an awesome new invention idea, or a philosophical idea, or when i start ranting, I hit the record button.
There are several benefits to doing this:
1. You can hear yourself (effectively) from an outside perspective once enough time has passed. This is awesome since you cant remember exactly what you were thinking at that point, so you hear yourself the exact way others do. This is a very rare experience that i believe would benefit anyone.
2. You have a record of your ideas for the future, immortalized in digital media, you can copy and share that shit anywhere. Although, I would be very careful who you share your ideas and secrets with. People could exploit the things you hold dearest, and that, could seriously fuck with you.
3. The third is what I like to call psychological porno. I call it that because playing back your hopes/dreams/realizations/etc after a long span of time really brings you back to the person you wish to be. Everyone strays from that person from time to time, but its important for us to be able to realize what path we wanted to take in the first place.
